From the Manufacturer
Maximize your system's protection. Now you can get protection from harmful surges, voltage spikes and inconvenience! Monster's PowerCenters offer high performance solutions for today's technology challenges. Harmful power surges and voltage spikes can travel up AC power and coax connections and damage your components. Lightning, automatic garage doors, power tools, refrigerators and fluorescent lights all cause power surges and voltage spikes that can travel up AC power lines and coax cables to damage your computer system. Even a momentary power surge can destroy valuable data stored on your hard drive. Worse yet, costly damage can occur to the sensitive electronic circuitry of your motherboard. Ordinary surge protectors, or the so-called "value brands", often fail to provide the adequate level of safeguards you need to protect your valuable data and equipment. A properly designed surge protector can help protect your sensitive computer components. Proper connection to an advanced surge protector with integrated system protection, via Internet/Phone line protection as well, the PC800 can help minimize the risk of surge damage to your system. PC800 gives you the level of protection your system needs. Unlike standard surge protectors, the Computer PowerCenter PC800 with SurgeGuard protection provides multiple layers of defense against harmful surges. Strategically placed multiple Metal Oxide Varasitors (MOV's) respond within one nanosecond (a billionth of a second) to power surges and voltage spikes before they can reach and damage electronic circuitry. Monster PowerCenters make life easier. Monster's FlatProfile plug lets you push your furniture flush against the wall. And, with eight color-coded outlets and cord labels, you can avoid unplugging your computer by mistake - possibly causing valuable data loss or damage to your hard drive. Finally, a generous eight-foot Monster power cord, which is the optimum length to reach most electrical outlets, is included.

Customer Reviews

Stopped a lighting strike through the phone line.
I bought one of these to protect my mom's computer. Her house got struck by lighting and it went through the phone line and this stopped any damage from happening to her computer. The power strip was toast, so I bought her another one just like it.

Expensive power strip, but you get what you pay for!
I was happy to be able to pick this up on Amazon for half the price that Monster charges if you buy it from them directly! It's solved the problems I was having with my laptop freezing almost every time I plugged it back into the wall. My cheap Belkin power strip wasn't preventing the power spikes that this area is known for. It looks like something straight out of the 1980s, but it works!

Doesn't do anything for me
I bought one of these because I had a strange popping sound coming for my speakers every time somebody turned a light switch on or off in my house. I was told it was due to dirty power, so when I saw this thing I bought it right away. It doesn't do anything to solve my problem. The speakers are still popping, and when I measured the voltage through this device, it wasn't any more stable than without it. As far as I can tell, it did absolutely nothing. Its a pretty expensive power strip if the features don't work. I'm returning it today.

That being said, it seems to be relatively well built.
